Isolated Incidents, a six-part miniseries from the Broadway Podcast Network, highlights the universal struggles that we felt in 2020.
Sanchez and several artists discussed the idea of wanting to create something that spoke to what was happening. A team of majority-BIPOC and majority-queer playwrights were assembled. They came up with “The series of audio plays gives us a diverse look at all of the different ways that race in the pandemic, intersect, interact and collide,” says Sanchez.
The various episodes delve into issues like dealing with feeling safe in public during a date or worrying about new neighbors. Spivey’s play,, was inspired by her own experiences working at a restaurant at the beginning of the pandemic and how each person she encountered had a different feeling towards safety.
For Nick Kaidoo the series really hit home. Kaidoo had family members who continued working throughout the pandemic. “[I] was nursing those anxieties,” says Kaidoo who wrote. “And trying to think of what we could do with this project, to highlight and illustrate those truths and stories.” Working on the series was a true labor of love for sound designer Twi McCallum who was solely responsible for sound effects, editing and the final mix of the series.
